Dear Half-Mast,
What’s the right way
to account for Class
7, nonexpendable items
that are components
of end items (COEIs)?
My unit has items
like generators listed
separately on the
property book from the
containerized kitchens
they’re used with.
It seems that this
either causes the
components to be
laterally transferred
or turned in. That
makes the end item
non-mission capable or
results in the end item
being transferred while
its components are left
listed on the property
book. What’s the
solution?
SGT T.J.A.
Dear Sergeant,
Take heart. You’re not the
frst supply sergeant to suFFer
a headache From fnding
multiple miscellaneous
pieces ±oating around on the
property book. IF a component
has authorization From the
MTOE or TDA, it will always
be listed separately on the
property book. ²ortunately,
the Army’s got a solution For
this now.
A recent PBUSE update lets
users enter nonexpendable
COEI in the system number
(SYSNO), while still having
the reporting and traceability
required by AR 710-3,
Inventory Management Asset
and Transaction Reporting
System (Sep 09).
This means that generators that are COEI to containerized kitchens, as in your
example, can now be annotated in the SYSNO, without listing them on the primary
hand receipt.
Be patient with your property book oFfcer as he adjusts primary hand receipts to
conForm to this new procedure. This change should also help get the property book
more orderly in time For the Wave 2 GCSS-Army transition.
